Zoro's entire life goals crumble if he loses to someone, especially if he loses to Mihawk again.
He made a promise to his dead best friend, a promise to his current best friend/captain, and a promise to himself and Mihawk.
This is something he's spent over half his life working for, he's been lifting boulders since he was like 8, if he can't become the WSS then he's quite literally nothing.
